2017 in a nutshell

I almost forgot to tally the numbers this year. Okay, let's have a look at how 2017 stacked up, quantitatively, to other years, since we began keeping track. We're on the air every week on Co-op Radio, but some weeks we run repeats – er, I mean, "special encore presentations" – and some weeks we come in sans guest and play comedy clips. The numbers below reflect the weeks we had new programming with guest(s):

2009 we had 42 shows

2010 we had 38 shows

2011 we had 44 shows with 53 guests

2012 we had 41 shows with 47 guests

2013 we had 35 shows with 37 guests

2014 we had 36 shows with 39 guests

2015 we had 36 shows with 40 guests

2016 we had 32 shows with 33 guests (and three visitors)

So coming off a career low year, how did 2017 look? First off, we added Sam Tonning to the show, and he's like a guest every week, but we won't count him.:

2017 we had 36 shows with 37 guests

So there you go. Big thanks to all our guests (who you'll hear on our special programming tonight and next week):
